articles of amendment  which  amended and restated and then further  amended the
Registrant's charter effective as of that date, among other things, to eliminate
from the authorized stock of the Registrant the entire 100,000,000 shares of the
Registrant's  authorized  but unissued  class B common stock and to effect a one

                      Capital Trust, Inc. and Subsidiaries
                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                 March 31, 2003
                                   (unaudited)


1. Presentation of Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all
of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The
accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and the related management's
discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations filed
with the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Capital Trust, Inc. and Subsidiaries
(collectively, the "Company") for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The
results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003, are not
necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year
ending December 31, 2003.

The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  interim  financial  statements of the
Company include the accounts of the Company and its  wholly-owned  subsidiaries.
All significant  intercompany  balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.  The accounting and reporting  policies of the Company conform in
all material respects to accounting  principles generally accepted in the United
States.  Certain  prior  period  amounts  have been  reclassified  to conform to
current period classifications.

2. Subsequent Event

On April 2, 2003,  the  Company's  charter  was amended  and  restated  and then
further amended to eliminate from the authorized stock of the Company the entire
100,000,000 shares of the Company's authorized but unissued class B common stock
and to effect a one (1) for three (3) reverse stock split of the Company's class
A common stock.  Fractional  shares  resulting from the reverse stock split were
settled  in cash at a rate of $16.65  multiplied  by the  percentage  of a share
owned after the split.

All per share  information  concerning  the  computation  of earnings per share,
dividends per share,  authorized  stock,  and per share  conversion and exercise
prices reported in the accompanying  consolidated  interim financial  statements
and these notes to  consolidated  financial  statements have been adjusted as if
the  amendments to the Company's  charter were in effect for all fiscal  periods
and as of all balance sheet dates presented.

3. REIT Election

In December  2002,  the Company's  board of directors  authorized  the Company's
election to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for the 2003 tax
year.  The Company will continue to make,  for its own account and as investment
manager  for the  account  of funds  under  management,  loans and  debt-related
investments in various types of commercial real estate and related assets.

In view of the  Company's  election  to be  taxed  as a REIT,  the  Company  has
tailored its balance sheet investment  program to originate or acquire loans and
investments  to  produce a  portfolio  that  meets the  asset and  income  tests
necessary  to  maintain  the  Company's  qualification  as a REIT.  In  order to
accommodate the Company's REIT status,  the legal structure of future investment
funds the Company  sponsors  may be  different  from the legal  structure of the
Company's existing investment funds.

In order to qualify as a REIT,  five or fewer  individuals  may own no more than
50% of the Company's  Common Stock. As a means of  facilitating  compliance with
such  qualification,  stockholders  controlled  by John R.  Klopp  and  Craig M.
Hatkoff  and  trusts  for the  benefit  of the  family of Samuel  Zell each sold
166,666  shares  of  Class A  Common  Stock to an  institutional  investor  in a
transaction  that closed on February 7, 2003.  Following this  transaction,  the
Company's  largest five individual  stockholders  own in the aggregate less than
50% of the Company's Class A Common Stock.

4. Purchase of Citigroup's Interest in Fund I

In January 2003, the Company purchased the 75% interest in CT Mezzanine Partners
I LLC ("Fund I") held by affiliates of Citigroup  Alternative  Investments,  LLC
("Citigroup") for a purchase price of approximately $38.4 million (including the
assumption of liabilities),  at the book value of the fund. On January 31, 2003,
the Company began  consolidating  the balance sheet and  operations of Fund I in
its consolidated financial statements.

5. Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial  statements  requires  management to make estimates
and assumptions  that affect the reported  amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

One Mortgage Loan  receivable with an original  principal  balance of $8,000,000
reached  maturity  on July 15,  2001 and has not been  repaid  with  respect  to
principal  and  interest.  In  December  2002,  the  loan  was  written  down to
$4,000,000  through a charge to the allowance  for possible  credit  losses.  In
accordance with the Company's policy for revenue recognition, income recognition
has been  suspended  on this loan and for the three months ended March 31, 2003,
$114,000 of potential interest income has not been recorded.

At March 31,  2003,  the weighted  average  interest  rate in effect,  including
amortization of fees and premiums, for the Company's performing loans receivable
is as follows:

   (1)  Mortgage Loans                                          10.23%
   (2)  Mezzanine Loans                                         10.58%
             Total loans                                        10.56%

At March 31, 2003, $49,570,000 (36%) of the aforementioned performing loans bear
interest at floating  rates  ranging  from LIBOR plus 235 basis  points to LIBOR
plus 875 basis points. The remaining $88,864,000 (64%) of loans bear interest at
fixed rates ranging from 11.62% to 12.00%.

8. Long-Term Debt

Credit Facility

In connection with the Company's  purchase of Fund I interest held by Citigroup,
the Company  assumed the obligations  under the credit facility  entered into by
Fund  I.  There  were  outstanding  borrowings  of  $24,084,000  on the  date of
acquisition. The lender for the Fund I credit facility is the same as the lender
for the Company's  outstanding  credit facility and thus the two facilities have
been combined for reporting purposes.

At March 31,  2003,  the Company has borrowed  $44,468,000  under a $150 million
credit  facility at an average  borrowing rate  (including  amortization of fees
incurred  and   capitalized)  of  4.89%.  The  Company  has  pledged  assets  of
$103,406,000 as collateral for the borrowing  against such credit  facility.  On
March 31, 2003, the unused amount of potential credit under the remaining credit
facility was $105,532,000.

Repurchase Obligations

At March 31,  2003,  the  Company  was  obligated  to two  counterparties  under
repurchase agreements.

The  repurchase  obligation  with the  first  counterparty,  an  affiliate  of a
securities dealer,  was utilized to finance CMBS securities.  At March 31, 2003,
the Company has sold CMBS  assets with a book and market  value of  $156,373,000
and  has a  liability  to  repurchase  these  assets  for  $95,268,000  that  is
non-recourse to the Company. This repurchase obligation had an original one-year
term that  expired in  February  2003 and was  extended to  February  2004.  The
liability  balance bears interest at specified  rates over LIBOR based upon each
asset included in the obligation.

The other  repurchase  obligation  with the  other  counterparty,  a  securities
dealer, arose in connection with the purchase of available-for-sale  securities.
At March 31, 2003, the Company has sold such assets with a book and market value
of $46,414,000 and has a liability to repurchase  these assets for  $45,227,000.
This repurchase  agreement comes due monthly and has a current  maturity date in
June 2003. The liability balance bears interest at LIBOR.

The interest rate in effect for all the  repurchase  obligations  outstanding at
March 31, 2003 was 2.08%.

Term Redeemable Securities Contract

At March 31, 2003, the Company has borrowed $20,000,000 under a $75 million term
redeemable   securities   contract  at  an  average  borrowing  rate  (including
amortization of fees incurred and capitalized) of 5.31%. The Company has pledged
assets of  $35,028,000  as  collateral  for the  borrowing  against  such credit
facility.  On March 31, 2003,  the unused  amount of potential  credit under the
remaining credit facility was $55,000,000.

11. Income Taxes

The  Company  intends to make an  election  to be taxed as a REIT under  Section
856(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with the tax
year ending  December 31, 2003. As a REIT, the Company  generally is not subject
to federal  income tax. To maintain  qualification  as a REIT,  the Company must
distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its  stockholders and meet
certain  other  requirements.  If the Company  fails to qualify as a REIT in any
taxable year,  the Company will be subject to federal  income tax on its taxable
income at regular  corporate  rates.  The Company may also be subject to certain
state and local taxes on its income and property.  Under certain  circumstances,
federal income and excise taxes may be due on its undistributed  taxable income.
At March 31, 2003, the Company was in compliance with all REIT requirements.

12. Dividends

In order to  maintain  its  election  to qualify  as a REIT,  the  Company  must
currently  distribute,  at a minimum, an amount equal to 90% of its REIT taxable
income  and must  distribute  100% of its REIT  taxable  income to avoid  paying
corporate  federal income taxes. The Company  anticipates it will distribute all
of its REIT taxable  income to its  stockholders.  Because  REIT taxable  income
differs from cash flow from operations due to non-cash revenues or expenses,  in
certain circumstances,  the Company may be required to borrow to make sufficient
dividend payments to meet this anticipated dividend threshold.

On March 11, 2003, the Company declared a dividend of approximately  $2,442,000,
or $0.45 per  share of  common  stock  (after  adjustment  for the one for three
reverse stock split) applicable to the three-month  period ended March 31, 2003,
payable on April 15, 2003 to stockholders of record on March 31, 2003.

 ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations

The following  discussion  should be read in conjunction  with the  consolidated
financial  statements and notes thereto  appearing  elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
Historical  results  set  forth are not  necessarily  indicative  of the  future
financial position and results of operations of the Company.

Introduction

The Company is an investment  management  and real estate  finance  company that
operated  principally  as a balance sheet lender until the  commencement  of its
investment  management  business in March 2000. In December  2002, the Company's
board of directors authorized an election to be taxed as a REIT for the 2003 tax
year.  The Company will continue to make,  for its own account and as investment
manager  for the  account  of funds  under  management,  loans and  debt-related
investments  in various  types of  commercial  real estate  assets and operating
companies.

On March 8,  2000,  the  Company  entered  into a  venture  with  affiliates  of
Citigroup Alternative  Investments,  LLC ("Citigroup") to co-sponsor,  commit to
invest  capital  in and  manage  high-yield  commercial  real  estate  mezzanine
investment funds.  Pursuant to the venture agreement,  the Company and Citigroup
co-sponsored Fund I and Fund II. Fund II's total equity  commitments were $845.2
million,  including equity  commitments of $49.7 million and $198.9 million from
the  Company  and  Citigroup,  respectively.  On January 1,  2003,  the  general
partners  of Fund II  (affiliates  of the  Company  and  Citigroup)  voluntarily
reduced the management  fees for the remainder of the  investment  period by 50%
due to a lower than expected  level of deployment of the fund's  capital.  Total
capital calls of $329.0  million have been collected as of March 31, 2002 and no
additional capital calls are anticipated as the investment period ended on April
9, 2003. The Company is also entitled to receive incentive payments from Fund II
if the  return on  invested  equity is in excess of 10%.  The amount of any such
payments is not  determinable  at March 31, 2003 and as such, no amount has been
accrued as income  for such  potential  payments  in the  financial  statements.
Potential  incentive  payments  received  as Fund II winds down could  result in
significant  additional  income from  operations in certain periods during which
such payments can be recorded as income.

In 2001 and 2002 in connection with the  organization of Fund I and Fund II, the
Company issued to affiliates of Citigroup  warrants to purchase 2,842,825 shares
of Class A Common  Stock.  At December 31, 2002,  all such warrants had a $15.00
per share exercise price,  were exercisable and were to expire on March 8, 2005.
In January 2003, the Company purchased all of the warrants  outstanding from the
affiliates of Citigroup for $2.1 million.

The  Company's   current   lending  and  investment   activities  are  conducted
principally  through  funds under  management.  Until the end of the  investment
period for Fund II on April 9, 2003, the Company  generally did not originate or
acquire loans or CMBS directly for its own balance sheet portfolio. Now that the
Fund II investment  period has ended,  the Company  plans to originate  loans or
purchase  investments  for its own account as  permitted  by future  funds under
management.  The Company  will also use its  available  working  capital to make
contributions  to Fund II or any other funds as and when required by the capital
commitments  made by the Company to such funds.  If the amount of the  Company's
maturing loans and investments increases  significantly before excess capital is
invested  in new funds,  or  otherwise  accretively  deployed,  the  Company may
experience  shortfalls in revenues and lower earnings until offsetting  revenues
are derived from funds under  management or other sources.  For the remainder of
2003,  the Company  does not expect a decrease in total  assets,  as  additional
reductions in loans and investments from  satisfactions will require the Company
to purchase or originate  additional assets that are qualifying assets under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.


                                      -11-





On January 31, 2003, the Company  purchased from  affiliates of Citigroup  their
75%  interest  in  Fund  I  for  $38.4  million  (including  the  assumption  of
liabilities).  As of January 31,  2003,  the  Company  began  consolidating  the
operations of Fund I in its consolidated financial statements.

Since December 31, 2002, the Company has made equity contributions to Fund II of
$5.5 million and equity  contributions to Fund II's general partner of $757,000.
The Company's does not anticipate making any additional equity  contributions to
Fund II or its general  partner.  The Company's total  investment in Fund II and
its general  partner at March 31, 2003 is $22.0  million.  As of March 31, 2003,
Fund II has outstanding  loans and investments  totaling $741.1 million,  all of
which are performing in accordance with the terms of their agreements.

The Company has capitalized  costs of $6,391,000,  net, that are being amortized
over the anticipated lives of the Funds.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 and 2002
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company reported a net income of $2,545,000 for the three months ended March
31,  2003,  an increase of $972,000  from the net income of  $1,573,000  for the
three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase was primarily the result of the
elimination  of income taxes in 2003 with the REIT  election and the increase in
income from equity  investments in Funds.  These increases were partially offset
by a reduction in management  and advisory  fees from Funds,  a recapture of the
allowance for possible credit losses in 2002, which did not recur in 2003, and a
reduction in net income from loans and investments.

Interest  and  related  income  from  loans and other  investments  amounted  to
$8,959,000  for the three months ended March 31, 2003, a decrease of  $5,027,000
from the $13,986,000  amount for the three months ended March 31, 2002.  Average
interest-earning  assets  decreased  from  approximately  $562.8 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2002 to approximately  $351.6 million for the three
months ended March 31,  2003.  The average  interest  rate earned on such assets
increased  from 10.1% in 2002 to 10.3% in 2003.  During the three  months  ended
March 31, 2003,  the Company  recognized  $367,000 in  additional  income on the
early repayment of loans.  Without this additional  interest income, the earning
rate for the 2003 period  would have been 9.9% versus 10.1% for the 2002 period.
LIBOR rates averaged 1.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 1.8% for
the three months ended March 31,  2002,  a decrease of 0.5%.  Since  substantial
portions of the Company's  assets earn interest at fixed-rates,  the decrease in
the average  earning rate did not correspond to the full decrease in the average
LIBOR rate.

Interest and related expenses  amounted to $2,295,000 for the three months ended
March 31,  2003, a decrease of  $3,354,000  from the  $5,649,000  amount for the
three months ended March 31, 2002. The decrease in expense was due to a decrease
in  the  amount  of  average   interest-bearing   liabilities  outstanding  from
approximately  $333.3  million  for the three  months  ended  March 31,  2002 to
approximately  $205.9  million for the three months ended March 31, 2003,  and a
decrease in the average rate paid on  interest-bearing  liabilities from 6.9% to
4.5% for the same periods. The decrease in the average rate is substantially due
to the increased  use of repurchase  agreements as a percentage of total debt in
the 2003 period at lower spreads to LIBOR than the credit facilities utilized in
the 2002 period and the decrease in swap levels and rates.

The Company also utilized  proceeds from the $150.0 million of Convertible Trust
Preferred  Securities,  which  were  issued  on July  28,  1998 to  finance  its
interest-earning  assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002,
the Company recognized $2,363,000 and $2,153,000,  respectively, of net expenses
related to its outstanding  Convertible Trust Preferred Securities.  This amount
consisted of distributions  to the holders  totaling  $2,244,000 and $3,809,000,
respectively,  and  amortization  of discount  and  origination  costs  totaling
$119,000  and  $199,000,  respectively,  during the three months ended March 31,
2003 and 2002.  In the 2002  period,  this total was  partially  offset by a tax
benefit of  $1,855,000.  Due to the  Company's  election  to be taxed as a REIT,
there is no tax benefit of the expense in the 2003  period.  The decrease in the
distribution  amount and amortization of discount and origination costs resulted
from  the  elimination  of  the  distributions  and  discount  and  fees  on the
Non-Convertible Amount, which was repaid on September 30, 2002.




                                      -12-




Other revenues  increased  $2,280,000 from ($100,000) for the three months ended
March 31, 2002 to  $2,180,000  the three months ended March 31, 2003. On January
1,  2003,  the  general  partners  of Fund II  (affiliates  of the  Company  and
Citigroup) voluntarily reduced by 50% the management fees charged to Fund II for
the remainder of the  investment  period due to a lower than  expected  level of
deployment of the Fund's capital. This reduced the Company's share of management
and advisory fees from Funds by approximately  $1.0 million.  During the quarter
ended March 31, 2002,  Fund I increased its allowance for possible credit losses
by establishing a specific reserve for the non-performing  loan it was carrying.
This additional expense drove the loss from equity investments in Funds.

General and  administrative  expenses  decreased  $225,000 to $3,704,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2003 from  $3,929,000  for three months ended March
31, 2002. The decrease in general and administrative  expenses was primarily due
to reduced  employee  compensation  from a reduction  in the  average  number of
employees.  The  Company  employed an average of 25  employees  during the three
months ended March 31, 2003 and 28 during the three months ended March 31, 2002.
The Company had 23 full-time  employees and one part-time  employee at March 31,
2003.

During the three months ended March 31, 2002, the Company recaptured  $2,963,000
of its previously  established allowance for possible credit losses. The Company
deemed this  recapture  necessary due to the  substantial  reduction in the loan
portfolio  and a general  reduction in the default  risk of the loans  remaining
based upon current conditions.  At March 31, 2003, the Company believes that the
reserve is adequate based on the existing loans in the balance sheet portfolio.

The  Company  intends to make an  election  to be taxed as a REIT under  Section
856(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with the tax
year ending  December 31, 2003. As a REIT, the Company  generally is not subject
to federal  income tax. To maintain  qualification  as a REIT,  the Company must
distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its  stockholders and meet
certain  other  requirements.  If the Company  fails to qualify as a REIT in any
taxable year,  the Company will be subject to federal  income tax on its taxable
income at regular  corporate  rates.  The Company may also be subject to certain
state and local taxes on its income and property.  Under certain  circumstances,
federal income and excise taxes may be due on its undistributed  taxable income.
At March 31, 2003, the Company was in compliance with all REIT  requirements and
as such, has not provided for any income tax expense in 2003.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

At March 31, 2003, the Company had  $11,176,000 in cash. The primary  sources of
liquidity  for the Company for 2003 will be cash on hand,  cash  generated  from
operations,  principal and interest  payments  received on loans and investments
and additional  borrowings  under the Company's credit  facilities.  The Company
believes these sources of capital are adequate to meet future cash requirements.
The Company  expects that during 2003, it will use a  significant  amount of its
available  capital  resources  to  satisfy  capital  contributions  required  in
connection with future funds and originate loans and investments for its balance
sheet.  The  Company  intends to continue  to employ  leverage  on its  existing
balance sheet assets to enhance its return on equity.

The Company  experienced a net increase in cash of $990,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2003,  compared to the net decrease of $2,074,000  for the three
months ended March 31, 2002.  Cash provided by operating  activities  during the
quarter ended March 31, 2003 was  $1,849,000,  compared to  $1,668,000  provided
during the same period of 2002.  For the  quarter  ended  March 31,  2003,  cash
provided by investing activities was $21,393,000, compared to $54,874,000 during
the same  period in 2002 as the  Company  experienced  lower  levels of loan and
investment  repayments  in the 2003 period  than the 2002  period and  purchased
significant  levels of  available-for-sale  securities  in the 2002 period.  The
Company  utilized the cash  received on loan  repayments in both years to reduce
borrowings under its credit  facilities and entered into repurchase  obligations
to finance the  purchase  of  available-for-sale  securities  in the 2002 period
which accounted for the majority of the change in the net cash used in financing
activities  from  $58,616,000  in 2002 to the  $22,252,000 in the same period of
2003.

On January 31, 2003, the Company  purchased  Citigroup's  75% interest in Fund I
for a purchase price of approximately $38.4 million (including the assumption of
liabilities),  equal to the book  value of the  fund.  In  conjunction  with the
purchase,  the Company  acquired  $50.0 million of loans  receivable and assumed
$24.1 million of borrowings  under a credit  facility.  On January 31, 2003, the
Company began  consolidating  the balance sheet and  operations of Fund I in its
consolidated financial statements.



                                      -13-





Other than those acquired with the purchase of  Citigroup's  interest in Fund I,
the Company has not  originated  or purchased  any new loans since  December 31,
2002 and has no future  commitments  under any existing  loans.  The Company has
received  full  satisfaction  of two loans  totaling  $27.7  million and partial
repayments on six loans  totaling  $1.2 million in 2003. At March 31, 2003,  the
Company had outstanding  loans totaling  approximately  $135.8.3 million (net of
reserves)  and held  CMBS and  other  available-for-sale  securities  of  $156.4
million and $46.4 million, respectively.

At March 31, 2003, after assumption of the debt in conjunction with the purchase
of Citigroup's  interests in Fund I, the Company was party to a credit  facility
with a  commercial  lender that  provides for a total of $150 million of credit.
The  facility  matures in July 2003,  with an  automatic  nine-month  amortizing
extension option, if not otherwise extended.  At March 31, 2003, the Company had
outstanding borrowings under the credit facility of $44,468,000,  and had unused
potential  credit of  $105,532,000,  an amount of available credit that provides
the  Company  with  adequate  liquidity  for its  short-term  needs.  The credit
facility  provides for advances to fund  lender-approved  loans and  investments
made by the Company. Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by pledges
of the assets  originated  or acquired by the Company  with  advances  under the
credit facility. Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at specified
rates over LIBOR,  which rates may  fluctuate,  based upon the credit quality of
the pledged  assets.  Future  repayments and  redrawdowns of amounts  previously
subject to the drawdown  fee will not require the Company to pay any  additional
fees. The credit facility provides for margin calls on asset-specific borrowings
in the event of asset quality  and/or market value  deterioration  as determined
under  the   credit   facility.   The   credit   facility   contains   customary
representations and warranties, covenants and conditions and events of default.

On March 31,  2003,  the  Company  was party to a $75  million  term  redeemable
securities  contract.  The term  redeemable  securities  contract has a two-year
term, maturing in February 2004, with an automatic one-year amortizing extension
option, if not otherwise  extended.  The Company has borrowings against the term
redeemable securities contract of $20,000,000 at March 31, 2003.

At March 31, 2003, the Company also has  outstanding  repurchase  obligations of
$140,495,000. The average interest rate in effect for the repurchase obligations
outstanding at March 31, 2003 was 2.08%.  The Company  expects to enter into new
repurchase obligations at their maturity.

The Company is party to two interest rate cash flow swaps with a total  notional
value of $109 million.  These cash flow interest rate swaps effectively  convert
floating rate debt to fixed rate debt, which is utilized to finance assets which
earn interest at fixed rates.  At March 31, 2003,  the market value of the swaps
is  a  liability  of  $2,258,000  which  is  recorded  as  interest  rate  hedge
liabilities and accumulated other comprehensive loss on the balance sheet of the
Company.

In March 2003,  the Company  repurchased  66,427  shares of Class A Common stock
under the open market share  repurchase  program from the Company's former chief
financial  officer  at a price of $14.25 per share.  After the  repurchase,  the
Company  has  666,339  shares  remaining  available  for  repurchase  under  the
authorization from the board of directors for the program.

ITEM 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The principal objective of the Company's  asset/liability  management activities
is to maximize net interest  income,  while  minimizing  levels of interest rate
risk.  Net  interest  income and  interest  expense  are  subject to the risk of
interest rate  fluctuations.  To mitigate the impact of fluctuations in interest
rates,  the Company uses interest rate swaps to  effectively  convert fixed rate
assets  to  variable  rate  assets  for  proper   matching  with  variable  rate
liabilities and variable rate  liabilities to fixed rate  liabilities for proper
matching with fixed rate assets. Each derivative used as a hedge is matched with
an asset or liability with which it has a high correlation.  The swap agreements
are generally held-to-maturity and the Company does not use derivative financial
instruments  for trading  purposes.  The  Company  uses  interest  rate swaps to
effectively  convert  variable  rate debt to fixed  rate  debt for the  financed
portion of fixed rate assets.  The  differential to be paid or received on these
agreements is recognized  as an  adjustment to the interest  expense  related to
debt and is recognized on the accrual basis.

The  following  table  provides   information  about  the  Company's   financial
instruments  that are sensitive to changes in interest  rates at March 31, 2003.
For financial assets and debt obligations,  the table presents cash flows to the
expected  maturity and weighted  average  interest  rates based upon the current
carrying values.  For interest rate swaps,  the table presents  notional amounts
and  weighted   average  fixed  pay  and  variable  receive  interest  rates  by
contractual  maturity  dates.   Notional  amounts  are  used  to  calculate  the
contractual  cash flows to be exchanged  under the  contract.  Weighted  average
variable rates are based on rates in effect as of the reporting date.

ITEM 4.  Disclosure Controls and Procedures


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of the  effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's
"disclosure  controls and  procedures"  (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c)  under the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the  "Exchange  Act")) was carried
out within 90 days prior to the filing of this quarterly report. This evaluation
was made  under the  supervision  and with the  participation  of the  Company's
management,  including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial  Officer.
Based upon this  evaluation,  the Company's  Chief  Executive  Officer and Chief
Financial  Officer have  concluded  that the Company's  disclosure  controls and
procedures (a) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed
by the Company in reports  filed or  submitted  under the Exchange Act is timely
recorded,   processed,   summarized  and  reported  and  (b)  include,   without
limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required
to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed or submitted  under the Exchange
Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's  management,  including its
Chief  Executive  Officer and Chief Financial  Officer,  as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no significant  changes in the Company's internal controls or in
other factors that could  significantly  affect these controls subsequent to the
date of the Company's evaluation.
